Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Porter, MN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
